Spanish chicken traybake

Ingredients


  • 400g new potatoes, halved
  • 3 tbsp runny honey
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sweet smoked paprika (pimentón), (see cook's notes)
  • 4-6 whole chicken thighs
  • 3 red peppers, sliced
  • 50g pitted green olives, quartered
  • a small bunch flat-leaf parsley, chopped
  • green salad, to serve

Description

  • STEP 1

    Boil the potatoes in salted water for 10 minutes until just tender. Drain well.

  • STEP 2

    Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Whisk together the honey, oil, vinegar and paprika with some seasoning, and pour over the chicken thighs, peppers and potatoes in a roasting tin. Roast for 40 minutes, stirring halfway, until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are golden and crisp – add a splash of water if the sauce is starting to catch on the bottom of the tray.

  • STEP 3

    Stir the olives and parsley through the traybake, and serve with a green salad.
